The Race Venue at the Johnson County Fairgrounds is quite unique. In addition to great spectator viewing, indoor restrooms, indoor shower facilities, and ample parking, our race venue will be decked out to suit the Holiday Theme of the event. Our Race Course Director, Todd Gillihan shown here, is busy working with Santa's elves and Grinch's dog Max, getting the course ready for the riders, reindeer, and whatever else wanders onto the course in 2011.

Friday night will be under the Christmas lights and the huge mobile array of lights from Iowa's world famous event lighting company, Iowa's very own Musco lighting. Musco has powered the X Games, F1 racing in the Middle East, the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games and the Jingle Cross! The most challenging section will be the infamous Mt. Krumpit. Spectators can see over 90% of the race from atop this craggily peak.  And the Grinch's Lair will be back on Friday and Saturday.
